Ashley L. Landers

Ashley L. Landers studies family relationships, foster care, and adoption, with a particular focus on the experiences of American Indian and Alaska Native individuals and families affected by child welfare systems. Much of this work examines grief, identity, and reunification for Indigenous people who were fostered or adopted, as well as broader topics in family therapy such as military families, law enforcement couples, and couples coping with mental health conditions. The research combines qualitative and interview-based methods to understand loss, belonging, and trauma within families.

Publication output has remained relatively steady over the past decade, averaging around 3-5 papers per year with some fluctuation, including a notable peak in 2023.
